Jeffrey Epstein Accountability Is Not a “Satanic Panic” — Here’s Why (2/27/26)

Jeffrey Epstein Accountability Is Not a “Satanic Panic” — Here’s Why (2/27/26)

Framing the current push for accountability in the Jeffrey Epstein case as a modern “satanic panic” mischaracterizes both the evidence and the nature of the underlying crimes. The satanic panic of the 1980s was marked by unfounded ritual-abuse allegations, moral hysteria, and prosecutions built on unreliable testimony. By contrast, the Epstein case involved documented victim statements, financial records, flight logs, plea agreements, federal indictments, and a criminal conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell for sex trafficking minors. Jeffrey Epstein himself pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting a minor and later faced federal sex-trafficking charges in 2019 before his death. The accountability effort today centers on transparency around prosecutorial decisions, institutional failures, and the scope of his network — not occult conspiracy theories or fabricated ritual claims.


Equating calls for full disclosure and institutional scrutiny with moral hysteria also misses what made Epstein distinct: he operated within elite financial, political, and academic circles while exploiting minors, and he secured unusually favorable treatment in earlier legal proceedings. The central questions are about how that system functioned, who enabled it, and whether oversight mechanisms failed — not about imagined secret cults. Reducing legitimate demands for records, grand jury materials, and accountability to “panic” rhetoric shifts focus away from documented abuse and systemic breakdowns. At its core, the debate is about rule of law, transparency, and whether powerful networks are held to the same standards as everyone else.
